=What is Linux?=
Linux is the result of merging the computational Kernel made by Linux Torval and the scheme present in any Unix operative system, Kernel was written from scratch by Linus and a loosely-knit team of hackers across the Net. It aims towards POSIX standard and Single UNIX Specification compliance.
It has all the features you would expect in a modern fully-fledged Unix, including true multitasking, virtual memory, shared libraries, demand loading, shared copy-on-write executables, proper memory management, and multistack networking including IPv4 and IPv6.
